Beyond biomedical imaging, we expect that the proposed deep learning based adaptive processing framework can benefit a variety of array and signal processing applications, in particular when data-efficiency and robustness are of importance.Limitations on bandwidth and power consumption impose strict bounds on data rates of diagnostic imaging systems. Consequently, the design of suitable (i.e. task- and data-aware) compression and reconstruction techniques has attracted considerable attention in recent years. Compressed sensing emerged as a popular framework for sparse signal reconstruction from a small set of compressed measurements. However, typical compressed sensing designs measure a (non)linearly weighted combination of all input signal elements, which poses practical challenges. These designs are also not necessarily task-optimal. In addition, real-time recovery is hampered by the iterative and time-consuming nature of sparse recovery algorithms. Recently, deep learning methods have shown promise for fast recovery from compressed measurements, but the design of adequate and practical sensing strategies remains a challenge. Here, we propose a deep learning solution termed Deep Probabilistic Sub-sampling (DPS), that enables joint optimization of a task-adaptive sub-sampling pattern and a subsequent neural task model in an end-to-end fashion. Once learned, the task-based sub-sampling patterns are fixed and straightforwardly implementable, e.g. by non-uniform analog-to-digital conversion, sparse array design, or slow-time ultrasound pulsing schemes. The effectiveness of our framework is demonstrated in-silico for sparse signal recovery from partial Fourier measurements, and in-vivo for both anatomical image and tissue-motion (Doppler) reconstruction from sub-sampled medical ultrasound imaging data.Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is one of the most common orthopedic disorders in infants and young children. Accurately detecting and identifying the misshapen anatomical landmarks plays a crucial role in the diagnosis of DDH. However, the diversity during the calcification and the deformity due to the dislocation lead it a difficult task to detect the misshapen pelvis landmarks for both human expert and computer. Generally, the anatomical landmarks exhibit stable morphological features in part regions and rigid structural features in long ranges, which can be strong identification for the landmarks. In this paper, we investigate the local morphological features and global structural features for the misshapen landmark detection with a novel Pyramid Non-local UNet (PN-UNet). Firstly, we mine the local morphological features with a series of convolutional neural network (CNN) stacks, and convert the detection of a landmark to the segmentation of the landmark's local neighborhood by UNet. Secondly, a non-local module is employed to capture the global structural features with high-level structural knowledge. With the end-to-end and accurate detection of pelvis landmarks, we realize a fully automatic and highly reliable diagnosis of DDH. In addition, a dataset with 10,000 pelvis X-ray images is constructed in our work. It is the first public dataset for diagnosing DDH and has been already released for open research. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/phycocyanobilin.html To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to apply deep learning method in the diagnosis of DDH. Experimental results show that our approach achieves an excellent precision in landmark detection (average point to point error of 0.9286mm) and illness diagnosis over human experts.

It is often challenging for low-rank methods to recover free-breathing and ungated images from undersampled measurements; extensive cardiac and respiratory motion often results in the Casorati matrix not being sufficiently low-rank. Therefore, we exploit the non-linear structure of the dynamic data, which gives the low-rank kernel matrix. Unlike prior work that rely on navigators to estimate the manifold structure, we propose a kernel low-rank matrix completion method to directly fill in the missing k-space data from variable density spiral acquisitions. We validate the proposed scheme using simulated data and in-vivo data. Our results show that the proposed scheme provides improved reconstructions compared to the classical methods such as low-rank and XD-GRASP. The comparison with breath-held cine data shows that the quantitative metrics agree, whereas the image quality is marginally lower.Chromosome enumeration is an essential but tedious procedure in karyotyping analysis. To automate the enumeration process, we develop a chromosome enumeration framework, DeepACEv2, based on the region based object detection scheme. The framework is developed following three steps. Firstly, we take the classical ResNet-101 as the backbone and attach the Feature Pyramid Network (FPN) to the backbone. The FPN takes full advantage of the multiple level features, and we only output the level of feature map that most of the chromosomes are assigned to. Secondly, we enhance the region proposal network's ability by adding a newly proposed Hard Negative Anchors Sampling to extract unapparent but essential information about highly confusing partial chromosomes. Next, to alleviate serious occlusion problems, besides the traditional detection branch, we novelly introduce an isolated Template Module branch to extract unique embeddings of each proposal by utilizing the chromosome's geometric information. The embeddings are further incorporated into the No Maximum Suppression (NMS) procedure to improve the detection of overlapping chromosomes. Finally, we design a Truncated Normalized Repulsion Loss and add it to the loss function to avoid inaccurate localization caused by occlusion. In the newly collected 1375 metaphase images that came from a clinical laboratory, a series of ablation studies validate the effectiveness of each proposed module. Combining them, the proposed DeepACEv2 outperforms all the previous methods, yielding the Whole Correct Ratio(WCR)(%) with respect to images as 71.39, and the Average Error Ratio(AER)(%) with respect to chromosomes as about 1.17.
